2:04 pm
you americans or julian assange just break through message exclusively on our t.v. dot com. another day of strong opinion at the u.n. general assembly as israeli and palestinian leaders address the chamber mahmoud abbas who cost half year at the u.n. with his failed bid for palestinian statehood last year is chasing a number observer status meanwhile israeli prime minister netanyahu has taken the stage to slam iran's alleged nuclear activities archies marina but nyad is in new york. last year when the palestinian leader submitted a bid for full member status that failed many say but that was only because the us threatened to veto it if it was put before the security council so the security council never got a chance to vote on it now this nonmember observer observer state status would move the palestinians chances of joining us agencies and other international criminal
2:05 pm
courts such as the international criminal court some see it as a a step towards full statehood many others call it the observer status. symbol because at the end of the day the most important thing for the palestinians is for there to be an ultimate decision on that in the middle east peace process for there to be an independent palestine and an independent israel during president abbas a speech he said that the continuing construction of settlements and the expanding occupations is is a campaign of ethnic cleansing against the palestinians he also called on the international community to remind israel to conform and be responsible to the geneva conventions israeli prime minister benjamin netanyahu addressed the general assembly drawing somewhat of a clear red line in the sand over iran's nuclear program he essentially it is not so many words issued somewhat of an ultimatum that iran halt its disputed nuclear
2:06 pm
drive or risk coming under military attack israel said it will do what it must do to defend itself and the u.s. president barack obama just a few days ago says that washington said washington would not allow a nuclear iran to develop and or have nuclear weapons you ron however insists that its nuclear program is only for peaceful purposes now the main difference between the u.s. and israel over iran's nuclear program is israel is very much pushing for ultimatums against iran the u.s. has been less aggressive with its rhetoric has it to from drawing any lines in the sand and this is created somewhat of a rift between america and israel. the crack between the white house and the israeli leadership is starting to show house and benjamin netanyahu is pushing washington to draw a red line over iran a line beyond which lies war but president obama is not bandy so let me be clear
2:07 pm
america wants to resolve this issue through diplomacy and we believe that there is still time and space to do so even though the obama administration's stated policy is not to let iran have a nuclear weapon for benjamin netanyahu that's not enough if you're determined to prevent iran from getting nuclear weapons it means you'll act before they get nuclear weapons acting before could mean attacking tomorrow even though according to a u.s. intelligence assessment iranian leaders haven't even decided on whether to build a bomb or not america's top military officials made it clear attacking iran would be a bad idea should israel decide to go it alone the head of the u.s. army said quote i don't want to be complicit and of quote they assume they can set iran back a couple of years and then go back and do it again and again that's just idiotic because once you start using force everything changes colonel lawrence wilkerson has joined a host of other former and serving government officials who put forward an expert
2:08 pm
analysis paper on what military action against iran would entail the paper states we believe that a u.s. attack on iran would increase ariens motivation to build a bomb. it would take iran a year or more to build a military grade weapon once the decision was made to do so at least two years or more would be required to create a nuclear warhead that is reliably deliverable die a missile as this really pushes ahead with war talk and red lines the obama administration is trying to relieve the pressure any pressure that i feel is simply to do what's right for the american people and i am going to block out any noise that's out there when the president referred to israeli war rhetoric as noise many asked whether the relations between the white house and tell of it have hit a new low all you have to do in this town is say the word israel and everyone is supposed to shrink away everyone supposed to leave the argument because if israel
2:09 pm
security is in peril then you are an anti-semite or worse if you say opposite opinion americans have made it clear they don't have the stomach for another war in the middle east especially a war based on some phony red blinds president obama knows that benjamin netanyahu probably knows that too hence the question is these three leadership really serious when pushing the u.s. to the brink of what would be a devastating war or is it some kind of a good cop bad cop diplomatic game that the u.s. and israel are playing whatever it is the escalating war talk is drowning out the hopes of diplomacy in washington i'm going to. syria has been among the dominant issues that he would gathering this week of the country's capital was rocked by two rebel terror attacks in just two days but this was laws ignored by international allies all the opposition who only stepped up their calls for regime change russia says as strong as the only encourages rebel terrorism let's get more analysis on
2:10 pm
that from our son he's editor of politics a first online magazine good to see you there again miss about the us now the u.n. general assembly meeting is underway in new you. why haven't you disease that the forum to condemn the terror attacks well of course we have heard condemnation by some countries of the appalling terrorist attacks this week in syria for example russia has condemned it however we're not going to hear condemnation from any western governments principally the american british and french governments because of course these three governments are support in the syrian rebels they've made their stance a very clear from the beginning it would be very confusing for western audiences if western governments with the will to start condemning these attacks because on the one hand if we take president obama he's made it very clear he supported the syrian rebels however if this week the american delegation at the u.n. would sit condemning the attacks that would send
2:11 pm
a very confusing message to ordinary american people on the one hand the president is supporting these people on the other hand he's condemning them when they carry out terrorist attacks so that's why we're not going to see any and condemnation from any western governments is that an argument for the rebels to topple assad and they have to resort to such extreme tactics especially if it eventually needs to syrian stability and. there's absolutely no substance no legitimacy to that sort of arguments the united nations was formed on the basis of two fundamental pillar state sovereignty and the sanctity of international internationally recognized borders violence and never achieves anything especially in a country like syria which like the old yugoslavia before it is a mosaic or different peoples different religions very multicultural society and that's something that many western politicians and western journalists are ignorant
2:12 pm
about when it comes to syria so as the russian government has been repeatedly saying only a peaceful solution will work for syria where both sides have to talk negotiate something as we just saw to cause a lot of days on. terror attacks in damascus i mean is this a sign of things worse to come. well but what we've seen this week the planting of a bomb near the ministry of defense in damascus and the killing of maya nasser the prestige they bear all the whole all the whole works of terrorism and what we must remember is that terrorism is terrorism it could be of course from a military perspective that the rebel forces in syria a frustrated that their tactics are not working they haven't taken over damascus as they said they would they haven't taken over a letter as they said they were perhaps they are becoming desperate and we are probably going to see more and more of these despicable terrorist actions we'll leave it right there thank you very much mr. as he's an editor of politics
